Key Benefits of Our Ladder

• Flexible Play: Play as often as you like each week with any player in your division.
• Personal Ranking: Individual rankings that adjust based on your play.
• Courts Reserved Daily: Courts are blocked for Ladder matches every day, including weekends.
• Activity-Based Points: Earn points each match; if you don’t play, you don’t earn points, and your rank may drop.
• Qualifying Made Easy: Only 3 matches are required to qualify for finals.

How it Works

• Play Format:: Each match includes 4 players who rotate partners across 3 sets, with a tiebreaker at 6-all.
• 1st Set: Player 1 & 2 vs Player 3 & 4 
• 2nd Set: Player 1 & 4 vs Player 2 & 3
• 3rd Set: Player 1 & 3 vs Player 2 & 4
• Ladder Points:: A player may earn up to 12 Ladder Points (LP) per match.
• 3 LPs per player for each set won 
• 1 LP per player for each set played
• Example: 
• If you win a set you get 4 total points (3 for winning the set + 1 for playing the set). 
• If you lose a set you get 1 point (1 for playing).
• If you win all three sets, your total would be 12 points (3 for each set won + 1 for each set played).
• WPR Rating: Your World Padel Rating will be fully updated as each set will be submitted to the WPR.

Finals Format

• Top 8 Players from each division will compete in the semifinals from December 13 - 15.
• Semifinal Matches:
• Match 1: Players ranked 1, 8, 4, and 6
• Match 2: Players ranked 2, 7, 3, and 5
• Finals: The top 2 players from each semifinal advance to the final match.

Additional Notes

• Balls: Balls are included in Ladder Matches.
• Court Fees: Regular court fees will apply to each match.

Good luck, and let’s Padel!
